Creation of recovery Partition on another OS disks

• deleted recovery partition - but not additional disk space?

  Hi all

  I recently bought a HP pavilion x 2. My first job has been upgraded to Windows 8.1, which she leaves me until I have 20 GB of available. It is at this time, I realized just how much the memory of 64GB has been taken over - including a 15 GB recovery partition - odd.

  So, next work was to remove that. I have created a backup according to the instructions and deleted the partition by using the HP Recovery Wizard. However, the total memory usage is not passed down. I'm now 18GB total free on a drive rather than 16 GB on a partition and 2 GB on another partition (raw numbers). This suggests that recovering the files themselve have not been deleted. I think I found the recovery of files in the appdata/temp folder (4 x 4 GB file which seems to live up to those on the recovery disc).

  So my question is: is it safe to delete these files? Is there an 'official' way to make using the hp recovery tool, that I would like to delete all files recovery which are now obsolete because I have an external backup, not only the large memory those?

  In addition, can provide advice on which programs are "secondary market" and therefore safe for me to uninstall I should consider their Needless to release me until a short memory. I realize how fickle computers can be when you try to get rid of things pre-installed.

  Can't find this on the forums, but apologies if this has been asked before.

  Any help appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  Given that you have created a backup copy according to the instructions. It should be ok to remove the partition recovery (already deleted anyway) so very sure to remove all the files KNOWN.

  Kind regards.

• Vista recovery Partition from another OS?

  OK - I know that HP recommend installing any other OS on my laptop HP 550, BUT - I was thinking about installing a Linux system. If I do - and decide I want to go back to Vista again - by pressing the restore button function F11 will work, provided that I do not delete the recovery partition?

  Now I ask before you make that leap. I like Windows Vista - but prefer to have Windows 7 - cant afford it just. I did find a brand of Linux I think is pretty cool - BUT need a Vista restore safety net I should find unsatisfactory Linux.

  Everything I need to know is that if the key (F11) restore feature will work if I leave the partition to restore in place. Thank you

  F11 no longer once you change the operating system. Burn your DVD of Vista using HP Recovery Manager recovery before doing anything.

• Is it possible to recreate the recovery partition?

  I have this satellite plu pro which used to have as usual, a recovery partition on the HARD disk to restore to factory settings. I created a backup disk (in fact, I created it on a USB key) using the Toshiba backup disc authoring program then wiped the drive HARD clean, including the recovery partition. I have come to the point now, but where it would be useful to have that DOS partition and I wonder if it is possible to restore it to how it was originally?

  On the top of my head, I thought that maybe all I would need to do was wipe the HARD drive again, he re-partition, and then create a new partition, call the recovery and then simply copy the content of the key USB/disk backup for this partition. It would even work, or I have to do anything in particular. Assuming that it is even possible with this method?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You can't do anything manually. If you want to have "initial state" again only thing to do is to reinstall the original recovery image using a created recovery media.

  Before installing recovery image starts the disk HARD integer will be removed, new partitions created recovery image is copied on the HARD disk and as final step recovery image is installed.
  Recovery of installation image and you will have "factory settings" again.

• Creation of the disk recovery Partition recovery disks or HARD.

  I hope that I get good advice from experts today.

  Is it possible to create a custom (mine) HARD drive recovery partition?

  Is it possible to create discs of recovery with all the updates and the installed program?

  Is it possible to update the recovery partition? (with whatever software and installed updates)

  For example, I have a laptop pre-installed with Win XP SP2 and I have upgraded to Win XP SP3 and for some reason any if I restore my laptop with the recovery discs or HDD recovery partition, the laptop will be restored to the factory loaded condition (this is XP SP2). Once again, I have to install all programs and install all updates (XP SP3). If we can create a custom recovery disks or custom recovery partition then we can very quickly restore the laptop easily to the last condition (condition at the time of the creation of the partition to restore or restore disks). It would be better if we can create the recovery partition as nothing else is needed other than the laptop for the recovery.

  Another option to achieve this is with Norton Ghost (or similar tool) but the problem is that we must always continue the Norton Ghost boot disk to start and recover the image. The compatibility problem with a model in particular must be checked. I installed Norton Ghost 9 on a laptop and the laptop turns off not with the shutdown command, and I have to turn off with the power button / stop. This problem was not to withdraw 9 of Norton Ghost. If we can create our own custom recovery partition, save us a lot of resources--time, money, broadband bandwidth and no tension of the installation of all new programs.

  Experts should Tips how to create the custom recovery partition and if this function is not available now experts should examine the possibility of updating the required HARD drive recovery partition.

  PRK,

  I assume you mean Windows 7 after having upgraded (since this is the forum for Windows 7).  Windows 7 has a disk Image feature that can do what you are looking for.  More information is here:

• "Partition recovery has been deleted" Message in creation of recovery media

  HP Pavilion 2205tx - C5j09PA #UUF G4

  Windows 8 64-bit

  "Partition recovery has been deleted" Message in creation of recovery media.

  I bought my new HP pavilion laptop G4 two days ago only and has not changed anything in the two players named drive C: for windows and D: for HP Recovery.

  now, I want to do a recovery with the HP Recovery Manager software disk.

  but it shows a Massage: "Recovery of Partition was deleted" Recovery Media creation section.

  in the recovery Partition my computer is almost full (3.26 G 25.5 G is free). so I think that there are current recovery files.

  I have not access to HP to buy recovery disk or call support.

   

  Thank you

  I don't know why your PC is saying your partition disappeared - you're right, it seems to be missing. I know that if you use the wizard to help to make your recovery disks backup copies and then ask him to remove the recovery partition to give you more space on the hard drive, it will remove the factory image HP of Windows 8 for the recovery partition and let the normal Windows repair tools.

  There are tools, but which allow you to create your own recovery partition full with these tools of Windows repair and a new image of your instalation so that you can restore from that. You can use this tool: Windows 7/8 - creator of Partition Recovery OEM available here: http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/21978-Windows-7-8-OEM-Recovery-Partition-Creator but it's a lot of work and it would be faster and more easy just for your data backup and restoration of your HP recovery disks made you from the support Assistant. If you did not the disks, HP can opt to send you a copy... they do not normally this but I read that some people have luck to get a free copy of HP media... otherwise, they want you to buy recovery disks ($40.00). I guess it depends on the exact terms of your situation.

  An alternative is to use Macrium Reflect Free Edition to ghost or clone your system. You can then restore your entire system even with your custom programs installed, to the exact state it was when you made the backup image. (this may take several dvd) I suggest that you go down that road because your system with Macrium Reflect restore is much faster than restoring from the HP recovery discs. Even if you do not get another copy recovery disks, you must use this tool to make another backup that you can customize to your liking. Your re - installs will be faster, they will already have your chosen installed software, and you will save wear on your HP recovery disks.  You can then delete the recovery partition to regain this space on your hard drive (since you cannot access in all cases, you will not need this space being taken up).  BUT... you cannot restore Mode UEFI which is what HP comes with. You have to go into your Bios settings and switch in the Legacy Bios mode (which disables the secure boot) FIRST or else the Macruim recovery boot disk will not load to install the recovery image. After the system re - installs you can go back into the bios settings and disable bios Legacy and reactivate if secure boot you want. (Windows 8 charge mode UEFI bios active secure boot or Legacy mode... it's your choice.) UEFI mode will load faster, but it will cause problems if you want double boot the system with another OS) hope this helps.

• Creation of recovery disks - problems

  Hi all

  I wonder if anyone can help me?

  I recently bought a used HP Pavilion DV6 (DV6-2110ea - product number: VY095EA) laptop and I have problems with the recovery system.

  When I bought it, I managed to recover the system to set up the laptop back to settings by default, and as an afterthought, I tried using the recovery software to see if I could create a set of disks.

  I ran the program expects to be told that the records had been created, but the software came with the message that he has split the partition to create the DVD.

  After a while, he came with a message saying that the disc 2 of 4 was created and asked for the next DVD.

  It seems that the creation of recovery disks never finished original owner and I was wondering if there was a way to start the process so I could successfully create disks.

  Any help you guys could give would be extremely useful.

  Thanks in advance.

  Re the above:

  I have authorized the creation of recovery software complete two final discs that then created file "hpdrcu.prc" in both the location suggested above.

  I deleted the and represented software and it has allowed me to create a complete set of discs.

  Whether if they work, it is another matter altogether, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it (again - there's always Linux)

  Thanks anyway.

• Satellite l.660-12 q - would the recovery disk rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition

  Talk about confusion. Does anyone know how to get a Toshiba C660 work after the HARD drive failed and the owner has stupidly NOT followed the instructions to make a recovery disk. Will be the recovery disk (if buy you one from Toshiba) rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition and install windows 7 (original OS) and accept the product key printed on the Windows license, attached to the base of the laptop. I have read a number of suggestions, but these have been considered incorrect by others.

  Surely, Toshiba must have a way to sort this problem.

  They read these messages?

  Hey Buddy

  I don't think it's really complicated, that I could find all the information about the recovery procedure in the user's manual

  The recovery disk must be created on the first day of purchase its recommended to create one in case something would be wrong with the HARD drive.

  The recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package containing Win system, drivers, tools and all the stuff pre-installed on the notebook.
  You bought the laptop and the system has already been activated so that you have need of t the key placed at the bottom of the unit.
  In addition, the use of the recovery disc formats the drive HARD integer (partitions too) and set the laptop in the same condition as at the first day of the purchase.

  There is also another option to recover the notebook called HARD drive recovery. This HARD drive recovery requires no recovery disk. The recovery disc HARD would be to use format ONLY partition C (System).

• HP Envy X 2: laptop recovery partition (D) merged with another partition, not be able to create a recovery media

  I have merged my restore partition HP with another partition I created. Data recovery files are still intact in the New Partition. I have not created a recovery media. When I tried to create the USB Flash Drive recovery using recovery HP Manager media, I get the message that "recovery partition does not exist. How to get again the merged recovery partition and create a recovery USB Flash drive. If simply copy data from recovering files to a USB flash drive will work as a Bootable media in the case that need if in the future.

  @joy1964: should not have done that.  Messing around with the OEM partition somehow good enough recovery ensures it won't work not later, when you need it.

  Personally, I don't trust recovery integrated systems in any case.  You want to be able to recover from an image stored on a disk system large capacity Flash DRIVE or external.  In this way, if the disk fails, I can restore a functional system within minutes.

  Consider using a third-party product known as Macrium Reflect this.

  Macrium reflect (MR) provides a FREE version that can be used to image and restore partitions or drives together.
  
  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key
  
  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  AND... you no longer have the recovery partition at all and can reuse that space for something else.

• Pavilion g series: cannot access the recovery partition & disk do not work

  Try to reset the computer to factory since it does not start in Windows.

  When I try to enter in recovery "esc then F11" it will just try to load windows. Recovery partition is still there just can't access.

  So I try to use disc 5 figure set I did 3 years ago & it starts on the 1st cd, but I get a message saying that the disk is not for this computer.

  I'm like what?  This computer rendered & I have the best recollection no changes to anything that should have caused the recovery to think that there is another computer.

  Suggestions on what I might have to do in order to recover my computer to the factory?

  How can I access the partition recovery from normal mode does not work?

  Why the hell does not work my cd?

  I bought the computer again.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks for the suggestion, but I can't return to Windows, even in safe mode.

  If this is the case, then you need the recovery media you can perform a factory image recovery.

  You can remove the hard drive and connect it to another PC through an external drive enclosure or a usb cable to sata. Which will allow you to copy your important data from the drive to another device of storage for extra security.

• Manager Windows 8.1 and the HP recovery disk manager cannot remove the recovery partition

  I have the following computer: HP ENVY h8 desktop PC - 1437c.  I used the HP Recovery application to do a recovery on a flash drive disk. When you have finished this operation it was not an option to remove the recovery partition (drive D on my computer. I tried to reopen the HP Recovery Manager and try to remove it like that, but to remove it is greyed out. I also tried to delete it using the 8.1 windows Disk Manager, but there is no way to do there either. If I right click on the recovery Partition, I get only an option 'help '. How can I get rid of this partition and recover lost space using it now on my hard drive. Windows and HP did not want to provide more records with their computers, but they do not have a problem of screwing of MY hard drive that I bought and paid for. I should start to charge rent for the space.

  I just used the software and created another partition as drive D using all unallocated space. I can delete probably once again, or maybe I'll just use it as a storage device for my files instead of recovering files sofetware... Thanks for the help

• My pcdid not equipped with any disk but has a recovery partition. How can I get vista to reinstall

  can I burn the recoery CD?

  Read the General information below on the recovery of Partitions and recovery discs and contact the manufacturer of your computer.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  I tried to delete the Windows Recovery 2 partitions with disk utility tools but the button "-" to remove them were leaving is disabled.

  Is it a good idea to remove these partitions? If yes how?

  1. What is the year/model of your Mac?

  2. you are trying to install a new copy of the W10 or remove the existing installation?

  3. do you have the W8 or installation/upgrade W8.1 had problems before the upgrade of the W10?

• Satellite L850 - how to replace a HARD disk recovery partition?

  Hello.

  Toshiba laptop Satellite L850. PSKDGA-02Y012. The original HARD drive has failed in his colleagues even mobile, so we replaced the two HARD drive after you have created a recovery USB. When used to restore the operating system to original status of OOB.
  That has worked and portable runs much, but now I want to BACK the recovery partition (now only on the USB I think) for the new HARD drive.

  Simple to shrink the disk HARD C: (partition 2) on the HARD disk, but then how to transfer twhats on the USB (USB recovery stick) back on the HARD drive?

  Thanks for any help.

  Karim...

  Hello karim

  When you buy the notebook you will get it with preinstalled operating system (recovery image). Original recovery image is saved on the HARD disk on the recovery partition.
  Each owner of the laptop has option to make the backup recovery image and create recovery media. It could be the DVD or USB support. You can do this by using preinstalled Toshiba recovery media creator tool.
  This tool will create bootable recovery media that can be used for the installation of original image recovery if there is problem with the installation of image disk HARD recovery or when the drive is defective and must be replaced.

  Where the HARD drive is faulty and should be replaced or the owner of the laptop to upgrade HARD drive, you can install original image created using recovery recovery media (USB). After installing recovery image, you will have the same situation as for the first boot after the purchase of the laptop. With other words notebook will have factory settings again.

  In this case original recovery image is already copied onto the new HARD drive and you will also be able to start the installation of HARD drive recovery. There is therefore no reason to copy a recovery on HARD drive media.
  Please note: installation of HARD drive recovery works with the factory only settings.

  If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

  Good luck.
